Section 25 Evidence Act | Confessional Statement of Co-Accused Inadmissible to Implicate Another Accused : AP HC Grants Pre-Arrest Bail Under BNSS Section 482
Andhra Pradesh High Court reinforces the inadmissibility of a co-accused’s confessional statement under Section 25 of the Evidence Act to implicate another accused, granting pre-arrest bail. The ruling underscores that reliance on such statements violates the presumption of innocence and due process, offering critical protection to accused persons facing implication based solely on co-accused testimony.
